Who can have a Hydrafacial Treatment?
Hydrafacial treatments are suitable for individuals looking to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate their skin while improving its overall tone and texture. This non-invasive facial is ideal for those seeking a refreshed, glowing complexion with minimal downtime. It’s particularly popular for those experiencing dullness, congestion, uneven skin tone, or enlarged pores.
Skin Type:
Hydrafacial is safe and effective for all skin types, including normal, oily, dry, sensitive, and combination skin. It can also be tailored to address specific concerns such as acne-prone or ageing skin. However, individuals with active rashes, sunburn, or certain skin infections may need to delay treatment. A consultation with your skincare provider will help determine the best approach based on your skin’s needs.
Age:
This treatment is suitable for adults of all ages. Younger individuals may benefit from the exfoliation and deep cleansing to help manage breakouts or uneven texture, while older individuals can enjoy enhanced hydration, improved elasticity, and a brighter, more youthful look.
Skin Concerns:
Hydrafacial is particularly effective for addressing a range of skin concerns including:
-
Congestion and blocked pores
-
Oily or acne-prone skin
-
Dull or tired-looking skin
-
Fine lines and uneven texture
-
Dehydration and dryness
-
Hyperpigmentation or sun damage
The treatment provides immediate results with no irritation or downtime, making it a popular choice for regular skincare maintenance.
Medical History:
Before your Hydrafacial, it's important to inform your skincare professional of any skin sensitivities, allergies, or ongoing medical treatments. Conditions such as rosacea, eczema, or active infections may require an adjusted approach or temporary postponement of treatment.
Expectations:
Most clients notice an instant improvement in skin texture, clarity, and hydration immediately after their Hydrafacial. Results are visible after one session, but a series of treatments can enhance long-term skin health and radiance. It’s a relaxing and pain-free experience with no need for downtime.
How often should I have a Hydrafacial?
To maintain healthy, glowing skin, a Hydrafacial is recommended every 4 to 6 weeks. For individuals with specific skin concerns like acne or pigmentation, a more frequent schedule may be advised initially. Your provider will create a personalised treatment plan to help you achieve and maintain your desired results.
Aftercare
Proper aftercare is important to maintain the results of your Hydrafacial and support your skin’s recovery and renewal process. Follow these aftercare guidelines to maximise your glow and minimise any potential irritation:
First 4 Hours:
-
Avoid touching, picking, or rubbing your face to prevent introducing bacteria to freshly exfoliated skin.
-
Do not apply makeup during this period to allow your skin to breathe and absorb the hydrating serums effectively.
First 24 Hours:
-
Avoid hot environments such as saunas, steam rooms, and hot showers, as heat can irritate freshly treated skin.
-
Refrain from vigorous exercise or sweating to reduce the risk of irritation or sensitivity.
-
Avoid exfoliating products (e.g. scrubs, acids, retinoids) and stick to a gentle skincare routine.
-
Do not use tanning beds or self-tanning products.
12–72 Hours Post-Treatment:
-
Use a gentle, hydrating cleanser and moisturiser to support your skin’s healing.
-
Apply a high-SPF sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) daily to protect your skin from UV damage.
-
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water to enhance your skin's post-facial glow.
-
Avoid alcohol-based or fragranced skincare products, as your skin may be more sensitive than usual.
48–72 Hours Post-Treatment:
-
Minor redness or tightness may occur and should subside within a couple of days.
-
Avoid waxing, laser treatments, or any exfoliating treatments during this period to prevent irritation.
-
If you experience any discomfort, use a cool compress or apply a calming serum recommended by your therapist.
1 Week Post-Treatment:
-
For best results, avoid strong at-home treatments like chemical peels, retinols, or microdermabrasion for at least 5–7 days post-facial.
-
Continue using sunscreen daily and keep your skin well-hydrated to prolong the benefits of your Hydrafacial.
Ongoing Care:
-
Regular Hydrafacials every 4–6 weeks can help maintain healthy, radiant skin and prevent build-up of impurities.
-
Your practitioner may recommend a personalised skincare routine based on your specific skin goals and concerns.
